Perhaps you can set the default TTL when you create the table instead of on every insert: http://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.1/cql/cql_reference/tabProp.html (see default_time_to_live property)
Then no need for UDF.

I am trying to use above function for setting TTL as INSERT INTO record(id,name,time) VALUES (123,'data123','2016-08-08 06:06:00') USING TTL fun('2016-08-08 06:06:00',totimestamp(now())); getting error as Syntax Exception: ErrorMessage code=2000 ........ Is there any other way to set ttl based on record time field. What is problem with above approach. Thanks.
